sound and hearing?
does sound travel faster in solidsor gases?

gases: solids:

Oz0x0= QQQQ:
-
takes longer for -
bump into each
particles to travel and other quickly
bump into each other -
more energy will
-

sound loses energy go around since it


so more energy will be lost as
doesn't
through gases
lost much energe

sound travels better it


at

thermal physic:
more heat during the day
coder during the night

ifyou cool a gas, the density


increases, sound travels better
